I climbed Mt. Helena after a day of work for the State of Montana, late in the evening the sun still above the horizon made the clouds beautiful and cast the long shadow of the mountains across the valley. Oddly enough this photograph was taken near 9 pm and I was still able to find my way down from the mountain top before the sun had fully gone behind it’s north western summer horizon.

On the way down from the summit I captured the following video using my handy video feature of my camera, there were deer all around which brought a since of tranquility, but I couldn’t get it out of my head that where there were dear there could be a mountain lion not far behind.
